Me, my team, and team RWY were given the task of setting up the dance. As me and my team were placing the speakers, Yang was moving the large speakers inside the place, Ruby sat in a chair, Weiss walked up to Ruby, Scarlett and I were moving the speakers around on the stage while also hooking our drums, guitars, and microphone up. As for the during the dance we'd perform on the stage, but not for the entire time.

Flashback

Me and my team went up to Ozpin's office, to ask if we could perform during the dance. As we walked up to his desk he looked up at us, before sitting back in his seat. “I trust you are all here for a reason?” He asked as we stood in front of his desk. “Yes sir, we'd like permission to perform on the stage during the dance.” I said, he looked at me for a few seconds before nodding. “Very well, but because I'm sure your like to be able to dance and talk with your friends I'll make sure we have someone for a DJ. In the meantime I hope the four of you know what you're doing. Now, is there anything else?” He asked, which we stood in silence. “Then you're free to go.” With that we left his office and returned to our dorm.

Present Time

“I need you to pick a tablecloth.” Weiss stated as she placed to pieces of fabric in front of Ruby, both of which looked identical to me. “Aren't they both the same?” She asked Weiss, who sighed in frustration almost immediately. “I don't even know why I asked.” She stated as I jokingly responded. “I don't think any of us do either.” I stated as I set up the microphone.

She walked off and Yang put a giant speaker down and walked over to Ruby. “So, have you picked out a dress yet?” sheu asked her, which I almost immediately look at my team who avoid eye contact with me as they whistle. “Well it appears these three haven't. My sister's get a pass because I'm 100% certain they hate dresses. Meanwhile… what are your excuses?” I asked as I set up the second microphone.

“I've been to worried about you?” I hear Katrina uncertainty answer. “Haven't had time with studying.” Emily says as she wires up one of the speakers that are on the stage. “You mean reading those books of yours that are obviously something you probably shouldn't read around us?” I ask, and immediately she blushed a bright red and stayed silent as everyone looked at her. Soon enough everyone stopped looking at her and continued. “What's the point? Who cares about the dance if Blake isn't going?” She asks as her head is on the table.

“Blake isn't going? Can't say I'm too surprised with how she us… yet I'm actually surprised.” I say the last part under my breath. “Oh don't worry, she's going. Weiss! I thought we agreed! No doilies!” She said turning her attention to Weiss. “I'm not even going to ask what that is.” I thought to myself as I finished up the second microphone. “If I don't get doilies, you don't get fog machines.” Weiss fires back as I hear her heels clicking on the floor. “Fog machines are superior to doilies, I'm siding with Yang on this!” I shout out as I go under the stage to finish the last bit of wiring. “I'm smelling a heavy scent of cologne, which only means one thing… douchebags inbound.” I thought to myself as I peak out  through were I was, sure enough it appears I was correct.

I ignore them all as they speak while I finish the wiring. During the process of this I end up stabbing a wire into my hand and shocking myself, which made me hit my head on the wood above me. “Shit!” Was the only thing I could tell as I rubbed my head. “Are you okay down here?” I heard Katrina ask behind me. “Yeah, just stabbed and shocked myself. I'll be fine… as long as I don't lose an eye down here.” I mutter the last part to myself. “I heard that.” She stated as she went continued doing her part.

I end up finishing the wiring and get out from under the stage. The two guys who came here were still talking with Yang, which I ignored everything they said, because I've got my own shit to deal with… like these wires.  Me and my team finally end up finishing the writing and everything and we sit on the stage as we talk with team RWY (RWBY minus Blake). Eventually we finish up and they go ahead and head out, while me and my team test the wiring and speakers.
